[quote="rickyk4"]Well, I've finally done the deed. I've joined the Dark Side. I've now become a seller. :shock: I spent almost a week researching how to sell, on the Ebay forums. I had to find out how shipping works, the various Ebay fees, which currency I should choose (e.g. Canadian or US dollars), what legal terminology I should put into my descriptions, etc. I scared myself silly reading all of the possible problems sellers have (what if somebody pays with a credit card and then does a chargeback)? And then I finally screwed up enough courage to post my item. TADA, I'm a seller! :lol: Well, even after posting my item I had to wait 7 excruciating hours for my item to even appear on the Ebay site. So now I know the business from the other end of it. So you can check out my professional-looking sale item # 170308111207, you can even snipe it if you want, I don't mind. :wink:[/quote]
